Cyber Security and Cyber Risk Management
Security by Design for Operational Technology
Cyber security is a business imperative as maritime and offshore operations become more digital and information technology (IT) converges with operational technology (OT). We work with clients to understand and control their unique OT cyber security risks, applying our deep domain expertise across a range of asset types and facilities in the maritime, energy and government sectors. Our Cyber Security experts help clients identify, measure and address cyber threats to minimize productivity loss and enhance safety.
ABS Group is working across the marine and offshore industries to implement security as early in the design, development and construction process as possible. This will make cyber security a consistent and integral part of operations from the beginning. Our cyber security and risk management services include:
- Cyber Risk Reduction and Rating (CybeR2) Program
- Cyber Security Assessment (powered by the ABS FCI Cyber Risk™ Model)
- Cyber Security Program Standup and Awareness Training
- OT Cyber Security Management Office and Incident Response
- OT System Documentation and Management of Change

Enterprise Asset Management
Driving Efficiency, Compliance with Business Intelligence
We combine our software and enterprise asset management (EAM) systems expertise and experience from 100+ system upgrades to help you streamline and reduce maintenance costs. Our EAM programs are designed to minimize scheduled or unscheduled downtime and optimize asset performance using the latest digital technologies and data-driven risk and reliability solutions.
Aging marine and offshore assets require major overhauls and EAM system upgrades as well as asset performance management programs that consider safer and more efficient operation throughout their planned lifetime. Our engineers and software solutions teams are prepared to manage upgrades, rebuilds and commissioning. After the initial repair/rebuild phase, we can help you develop a maintenance strategy and routines that promote more effiecient and effective operations onboard your vessel or facility.
